Indulge in Red Velvet Without the Calories; Try Red Hair Extensions

Red Velvet is more than just a dessert, it can be a the perfect beauty accessory. Think rich luxurious flowing red hair, who wouldn’t want to indulge? Lighter Ivory skin-tones look great with cool red hues. Colors in the red family with a bit of brown are very flattering on yellow-based complexions and olive skin tones look best with darker reds such as burgundy.

Here at Hair & Compounds, we see red in 7 different shades. Ginger (Red 7), Copper (Red 6), Rust(Red 5), Bronze (Red 4), Crimson (Red 3) and Merlot (Red 2).

Red Hair Extensions

A great way to add life and dimension to hair is to add highlights. Instead of going with the usual highlights with dye, try hair extensions. Not only does it allow you to mix multiple colors, but it also adds volume. Some of the lighter shades are perfect as a highlighter. For example, the Ginger (Red 7) or even the Bleach 7 would accentuate a dirty blond hair color and add tons of life to dull drab hair.
